Just slept on the LuxeAdapt Firm for the first time last night and I really liked it. It was not life-changing or transformative, but it was very comfortable and I had plenty of support. The mattress really is hard when you lie on it, but then you immediately start sinking and it contours to you perfectly. It's clearly a high quality mattress and so far I'm very happy with my purchase.
Hi Jeff -- Thanks for your comment. I'm very glad to hear that you're happy with your choice! FYI, the best way to share your experience with other shoppers would be as a review on GoodBed. This is where more people who are considering this product will find it. If you're willing, here's a link to where you can post your review of this mattress: www.goodbed.com/review-mattress/model/tempur-luxeadapt-firm/ I hope that's helpful.
You're welcome! We realize that many people are very brand-loyal, and that owners of older Tempur-pedic mattresses want to know how the newer versions compare. Glad our video was helpful!
Thank you for this Amazing review !!! Your review just helped me to make my final decision....... I just bought the LuxeAdapt Firm, split CA King with the TEMPUR-Ergo Extend !!! Thank you so much again for your help !!!!
Our pleasure Samir! Thanks so much for your comment and your feedback. I'm very glad this was helpful for you and hope your new mattress is a great match for you.
hey samir, is there any motion transfer? i am such a night sleeper & feel each time my husband moves. i need total motion cancellation- if it exists :)
I use to have a grandbed. I am so disappointed they no longer manufacture it. These new models aren’t as good as that was. Is there any way I can buy a grandbed?
My tempur pedic rep (I work at an Ashley store) said that the apr+ and regular apr have the same amount of pressure relief just that apr+ is more contouring and that the luxadapt is more supportive.
Hi Jesse -- Thanks for your comment. Pressure relief and contouring are two sides of the same coin. One of the things that makes memory foam a superior pressure relief material is its ability to contour more closely to your body. The more points of contact your body has with a surface, the less pressure there is on any one point of contact. To illustrate this, think of lying on two different beds of nails -- one with the normal amount of nails and the other with half as many. You're lying on the same material in each case, but the one with fewer nails is going to hurt a lot more because your weight is distributed over fewer points of contact. Contouring *can* also help with spinal alignment (which is what actually matters when one talks about "support"). This is especially true in the case of side sleepers, the position in which most people's curves are most prominent. The curvier they are, the more conformance they will need to hold their spine in a neutral position while they sleep. That said, the idea that any mattress is "more supportive" for everyone is just marketing. For example, for someone that has fewer curves, adding conformance can actually work against them, causing their heaviest parts to sink too far into the mattress and reducing spinal alignment. I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed: "...for someone that has fewer curves, adding conformance can actually work against them, causing their heaviest parts to sink too far into the mattress and reducing spinal alignment." Wow! That's the most helpful peice of information and a revelation. (I don't study matrrasses as a hobby... :-) )Your's is the best of four Tempurpedic reviews I've watched. THANK YOU!
@@dazimon Thanks. :) I am very glad to hear that. FWIW, while I can 100% appreciate someone wanting to get other viewpoints (as would I), you should be aware that there aren't any other mattress review sites that possess both accurate information and objective expertise -- meaning there aren't any other mattress review sources that are actually trustworthy. Many supposedly unbiased review sites even have direct corporate ties to mattress brands. Typically these ties are disclosed only on a page of fine print on their site, if they're disclosed at all. We've listed those sites here: www.goodbed.com/pages/biased-mattress-review-websites/ There are also some dead give-aways to look for that will "out" a mattress reviewer as a shyster. We've listed and explained those here: www.goodbed.com/pages/untrustworthy-mattress-review-websites/ It's become an incredibly seedy underbelly I'm afraid... I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed, yep. I've gathered as much. It'll be interesting consulting your list and see if any of the suspect ones I've visited are on it. I know that regardless of industry, there are "review" sites where the brand owners register a "review" domain and magically their brand is on top, just ahead of the real industry leaerd. Buyer beware. You are doing a great service to consumers and society in general. Ingegrity. Thank you, and God bless you.
@@dazimon Thanks again for your very kind words. And yes, this is often exactly how it happens. Buyer beware indeed. If you're willing to share, I'd be curious to hear any examples you've seen of this type of thing in other industries. I've looked around a little to try to see how the FTC has dealt with this in other industries, but so far haven't been able to find any good examples that seem to approximate what's been happening in this industry. Also, just to clarify one other thing, if you don't see a site on the list I sent above, this just means that they haven't been DIRECTLY backed a mattress brand -- but the absence of guilt in that one particular area does not by any means make them innocent. Almost all of the sites that aren't included on that list are still very much "pay to play." This means that their lists of the "best mattresses" are carefully curated with one objective -- to show you the brands that make them the most money. These sites have no actual expertise in mattresses -- they just use the fake disguise of an "unbiased expert" to make you want to buy the mattresses that they want to sell. Their only real expertise is in SEO, and as long as they continue to fool Google / UA-cam into ranking them highly, brands will feel that they have to work with them. That's why I included the other article, which explains how to spot an untrustworthy mattress review site more generally. TLDR: The best clue is to look for lists of the "best mattresses." These lists sounds great if you think mattresses are an appliance (like a toaster), but once you realize that mattresses are about personal fit (like pants), you realize that having someone tell you the "best mattress of 2020" makes no more sense than having them tell you that the "best pants of 2020" are the Dockers boot cut with 36 waist and 32 length. For context, our algorithm takes into account literally dozens of different factors about your needs and preferences in order to create a personalized list of the best mattresses for *you*. So even the idea of a universal list of the "best mattress for side sleepers" is a complete fantasy. But of course, these guys know full well that their information is steering countless people into bad purchases. They don't care though, because it was never supposed to help people in the first place. It was just supposed to sell mattresses and make them money. And that it does -- LOTS of money. "Best mattress" lists are the most lucrative pages on their sites, by far, which is why these lists will continue to be the best sure-fire way to spot a scam mattress review site. I hope that's helpful.
I hear that the LuxeAdapt Soft gets buttery soft to the touch and this can relieve back pain. Some people think it sinks in too much for overweight people trying to sleep on their back in which case it can cause back pain. I’m a 145 pound back sleeper who ordered one and am hoping it’s good for back sleepers! Some people say it’s the best bed they owned.
My mattress nightmare pain has been going on for 3-4 years now. Started off with all kings,a Beauty Rest, Beauty Rest Black, Adapt Medium Hybrid, Luxe Adapt Soft, Pro Adapt Medium, and currently a Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid. The Pro Adapt Hybrid has been the worst so far, the coils are noisy and the mattress is lumpy. Every single one of these mattresses have given me bad back(sciatica) hip and shoulder pain. My couch is still the most comfortable thing to sleep on. I’m going to do a full return with the Pro Adapt Hybrid, not an exchange. I will then purchase a Luxe Adapt Firm or Pro Adapt Firm and this will be the last Tempur-Pedic that I will buy, keeping it or returning it. I will not Exchange for it, because I’m not getting stuck with an expensive mattress that I don’t want.
I did. When I bought from a retailer versus from when I bought directly from Tempur-pedic. And the smell lasted almost a whole month! I opened windows and turned on a fan. And walked on it to open up the cells. Thought the smell would never go away!
Hi Stephanie. Thanks for the question. This is exactly why we developed our Match Quiz. Answer a few questions about your sleeping preferences, budget, and needs and our algorithm will show you which mattresses rank most highly according to your answers. You'll be able to specify that you want memory foam, and be able to specify budget, and our quiz will show you a bunch of options in your price range that should fit your needs. Start the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/ Hope that helps!
Hi there, just got the luxeadapt soft and it's been great. We put a waterproof cover over it but I was wondering if it's redundant because there is already a zip off cover on the mattress. Is the included cover waterproof or would you recommend using the additional one we bought. Thanks!
Hi Matt -- Thanks for your question, and sorry we're just seeing this. The waterproof cover you added is definitely not redundant. IIRC the zip-off Tempur cover is washable (or, at a minimum, spot-cleanable), however it is NOT waterproof. So your mattress id definitely getting additional protection from the cover you added. I hope that's helpful.
Nice job. Well explained. We got the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid a week ago and it's simply not working out. Sore hips and shoulders, tingling in arms. Before that we had a 3" memory foam topper on a Kingsdown mattress. My question is, what next? ProAdapt Soft, or Luxe Adapt soft? Thanks!
Hi Franklin -- Thanks for your comment. It sounds like the Medium Hybrid didn't provide enough pressure relief for you. Without more information, it's impossible to say for sure what was the cause of this, but in most cases, a mattress with more softness will be an improvement on this front. For this objective, I would recommend the ProAdapt Soft over the LuxeAdapt Soft. I hope that's helpful.
Goodbed why do you prefer the ProAdapt Soft over the LuxeAdapt Soft? I have the medium Hybrid and it’s too hard and am awaiting the LuxeAdapt Soft to arrive as an exchange. Did I make a mistake? I’m a back sleeper
@@MegaFirstclass we have the med hybrid now and hate it! I want to exchange for soft and leaning toward luxe until I read this lol. can’t decide which one. Did you end up liking it?
Thank you. Which mattress is better for support and pressure relief with hip and back pain for 220 lbs man and a 160lb woman, Luxe Adapt soft or Pro Adapt soft? Do they basically feel the same? I have tried the Luxe Adapt soft and it feels really good, but I can’t find a Pro Adapt soft anywhere near me to try and compare. I just don’t want to spend the extra money if they’re basically the same bed in comfort. We now sleep on/dealing with a 1 year 3 month Adapt Hybrid Medium and it’s like a brick giving us back and hip pain. We are trying to get away from the hybrid/coils and go back to all foam again. Thank you!
Hi and thanks for the question. On our softness scale, we classify the LuxeAdapt Soft and the ProAdapt Soft both as a Medium Soft on our scale -- so to us, they had a similar level of softness and cushioning depth. For the sake of comparison, we classified the Adapt Medium as Medium FIRM -- so a good deal more firm than the two soft models you are considering. Hope that's helpful!
@@goodbed Thank You! I know it’s a hard question to answer because you’re in the business, but your opinion, is the comforting pretty much the same between the Luxe Adapt soft and the Pro Adapt soft? Is it worth spending the extra money for the Luxe Adapt? Thank you again.
Yes -- as we said before, we thought that both are medium soft, so that means a similar "feel." Tempur-pedic's Tempur-LuxeAdapt mattresses feature a new cooling cover that's removable and machine washable, along with a new memory material called Tempur-APR+ that the company says is meant to improve pressure relief. The 13" tall LuxeAdapt mattresses are sisters to the less expensive 12" Tempur-ProAdapt mattresses, which share the same removable and washable cooling cover, and have less of the Tempur material. So that's the big difference between the two. So whether the LuxeAdapt's new foam and taller height is "worth it" to you is purely a judgement call!
Great review. Would you say the cloud luxe has a higher density base? And if so is there any real reason to go with the newer model? Is Apr+ worth it? I currently have the new bed in a box cloud from TP and it's far too firm for me. 6'1 175 lbs side sleeper with shoulder and lower back issues. The new cloud firmness causes discomfort in my shoulders.
I actually, just today, placed an order for a LuxeAdapt Firm mattress at a local storefront. Honestly I'm surprised by all the hate that I've been seeing in other videos for this mattress in particular. I laid on it in the store and damn near passed out right on the spot. But, granted, I'm currently living in a furnished, studio apartment and the mattress I'm stuck using is an old/metal coil mattress that's probably been around since the Raegan administration...so anything is better at this point. But, I digress. In your opinion, do you feel the LuxeAdapt firm model will hold up alright, long-term, with a 5'9"...170lb side/back sleeper like myself?
Hi and congrats on owning your new mattress! As part of our look at this collection, we take a detailed look at the materials and construction of the mattress. Tempur-Pedic memory foam, in our view, really sets the standard in terms of durability and quality. We didn't identify any red flags that would lead us to think it might not last as long as any other mainstream mattress. Thanks for writing!
@@khiabetcuadra7306 Hello. I've had the mattress now for about 8 or 9 months and it has been worth every penny. Now, in the beginning, it was rough. The first 3 weeks or so made me question my purchase because the mattress was, indeed, FIRM. Like, stiff. I actually went back to the mattress store after the first week to ask the manager about it and he told me that the mattresses that get used on the store floor from the factory are 'preconditioned.' He told me to give it 3 weeks to a month and that if it didn't improve they'd let me get something different. Well, they were right. After about the first month it began to feel great! Just having to break it in slightly I suppose. Work the air pockets and such out of the memory foam. But, now, I'm very satisfied and would advise you and others to not be swayed by the negative reviews. They were probably just impatient people. Good luck!
i weigh 185 and am 5 9 have a pro breeze medium hybrid, dont like it. do u recommend luxe adapt soft of pro adapt soft. the pro breeze isn't conforming
The pro-adapt soft is like a marshmallow. VERY soft and not terribly supportive (I'm 190 and 5"8 so we're not that dissimilar). The Luxe Adapt soft is more supportive for sure and has a medium soft feel i LOVED. My problem is that my hips sank in too deeply on that one and I needed more support. So I went with the LuxeAdapt Firm -- which feels very similar to the pro breeze medium but has more conformance (in my opinion.) I would check out both the firm and soft luxes in a store and see what feels better. I would NOT recommend the proadapt soft -- but again, try it out. You may love it??
I am a hot sleeper (get hot in the middle of the night) and just ordered a lax adapt firm. I did not like the breeze line as it was taking too long to adapt my body when I switched positions. Do you think Lux adapt firm will be too hot for me?
Hi Igor -- This is almost impossible to say with certainty. In general, we often tell people that if you don't have a tendency to sleep hot, there's a good chance you won't need to worry about sleeping hot on a memory foam mattress either. But in your case, since you do tend to sleep hot, it is more likely that this will be an issue for you on a memory foam mattress. And it's certainly more likely that it will be an issue on the LuxeAdapt Firm relative to the LuxeBreeze Firm. That being said, if you slept on the LuxeBreeze and did NOT have any overheating issues, then there is still some chance that you won't have any such issues on the LuxeAdapt either. And of the two LuxeAdapts, you should certainly be better off on the Firm (vs the Soft) from a temperature standpoint, so you made the right choice on that front. Sorry I can't be of more help on this one, but please keep us posted!
Thank you so much for your reply. I guess the only way to find out is to try it out. It’s nice that Tempur-pedic gives you 90 days to do that. Thanks again.
@@IgorOchev My pleasure. And yes, I would say this is true with temperature even more so than most other mattress attributes. If you decide to give one of these a try, please let us know how it goes!
I am trying a lux adapt soft and helps my shoulder and legs but doesn’t seem to give me enough back support. I would like to try another one but I’m worried about the Firm lLux adapt being too firm! I wish this one came in a medium firm but it does not. The pro breeze comes in a medium firm ass and I’m wondering if it still has the APR+ for pressure relief? because I have fibromyalgia
Hi Cindy. Thanks for the question. The LUXEbreeze models have the APR+ memory foam. We actually just published a new review on the LUXEbreeze, which may be helpful to you: www.goodbed.com/reviews/tempur-breeze-mattress-preview/ The PRObreeze models do not have the APR+ memory foam. As for the LuxeAdapt Firm vs Soft, there is a pretty big difference in softness between the two, as we describe at 4:36 in the video. Both have a lot of cushioning depth and conformance, which some people (including Tempur-Pedic) equate to softness. Also, both have a lot of memory feel, where the mattress really melts beneath you as you warm it up. However, the top foam layers of the Firm model are much firmer, which gives it much more surface firmness and less cushy softness than the Soft. So the Firm version might work for you, especially if you are on the heavier side. It might be worth trying in a store. Hope that helps!
Cindy, I have the LuxeADapt firm and it really is more like a perfect medium than a firm. I was also worried about the back support on the soft, but this one is really good. It's like a really dense marshmallow -- firm and soft at the same time. It's kind of perfect.
Thanks because I believe I’m going to try the Firm version. I think the saw one that I have feels great but it sinks in a lot more in the middle core of your body and I’m only about 125 pounds so it just doesn’t seem as supportive for someone that has low back hip issues, thank you for commenting
Hi there -- The Medium Hybrid came out in 2024. This video is for the version of LuxeAdapt that ran from 2018-2024, which did not include a Medium Hybrid. For coverage of the current lineup, see here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-line/tempur-luxeadapt/
We have a 2005 TempurPedic Deluxe (10"). We are going to replace it, and want one as close to the Deluxe's characteristics as possible. What current model would that be?
Hi Bob -- Thanks for your question. Based on what I recall of that mattress, the LuxeAdapt Firm could be pretty close, but I would probably look at the ProAdapt Firm as well. I hope that's helpful.
Would the LuxeAdapt SOFT be a good choice for someone that weighs 340 pounds? Do you think the way it (sinks) or (adapts) will leave an impression or indentation on the mattress rather faster with my weight ?
Hi Tavo -- thanks for the question. GENERALLY speaking, a soft, all-foam mattress is not the best support choice for a person in that weight range for a few reasons. The most important aspect of any mattress is spinal-alignment and support. Our concern with a soft all-foam mattress for heavier individuals is that the soft foams will allow a person's hips to sink -- and often, just keep sinking -- creating arching in the back, which can lead to back pain. For heavier people that prefer a soft feel, we will often recommend going with a firmer hybrid mattress (that's a mattress with a pocketed-coil support unit) that will give the back support that's needed, then add a soft mattress topper to give the feel that you like. So even before considering how long a mattress will last, it needs to meet your basic need of back support and spinal alignment. We'd really recommend first taking our GoodBed Quiz -- answer some questions about your needs and preferences, and our algorithm can give you a 'match score' for each bed that tells you how its features line up against your needs. You can start the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/quiz/ Hope that helps!
Do you think maybe the Luxeadapt Firm would be a better choice? With my weight would that be too firm for me? Because i see it adapts to your body a lot more than other tempurpedic...
I currently own a Tempur Pedic Celebrity mattress from over 10 years ago. I am replacing it and found your review of the Lux quite informative. Can you tell me which of the LuxAdapt line is more similar to the Celebrity; soft or firm?
Hi Mitchell. Thanks for the question. I know it seems straightforward, but it's actually tricky. That's because Tempur-Pedic doesn't maintain information on old product lines, and GoodBed wasn't around 10 years ago. However, the Celebrity was an all-foam mattress, so any of the Tempur-pedic all-foam beds will be in the same ballpark. The other reason it's tricky is that our mattresses naturally soften up over the years, so the mattress as it was 10 years ago when you bought would feel very different today in comparison -- it happens so slowly that your body just adapts over the years. So the mattress you may have bought as a firm might feel more like a medium today. Believe me -- I know it's not helpful to you that I can't say "oh, the Tempur-Pedic xyz is exactly like your old Celebrity mattress" -- but keep in mind that anyone who does is full of it. Your best bet is to hit up the Tempur-Pedic store (or a retailer who carries the brand) and give it a try. Before you buy, make sure you can exchange for a different "feel" or model if you get it home and don't love it. If you order directly from Tempur-Pedic, you get a 90-day in-home trial; you can return the mattress less the shipping fees. I hope that's somewhat helpful!
Thanks for the very clear review of the luxe adapt mattresses. A quick question comparing the pro-adapt to the luxe-adapt mattress. My BF prefers the feel of the ProAdapt medium and I much prefer the feel of the LuxeAdapt soft mattress (split king). The two mattresses are different heights (11" for the pro-adapt and 12" for the luxe-adapt) and so one of us will need to compromise or have a split king bed of differing heights. How does the luxe-adapt firm compare to the pro-adapt medium? Would you think the pro-adapt medium to be closer in feel to the Luxe-adapt firm or would there be less difference between the pro-adapt soft to the luxe-align soft. Thanks!
Hi Janet. That's a knotty problem! We judged the LuxeAdapt Firm to be quite a bit firmer than the ProAdapt Medium. Similarly, we thought the ProAdapt Soft was softer than the LuxeAdapt Soft, but the difference was not as great as that between the ProAdapt Medium and the LuxeAdapt Firm. So you might give the ProAdapt Soft a try and see if it will work for you in terms of softness -- then you can do your split king solution with the ProAdapt Medium and the ProAdapt Soft. Let us know how it works out!
I think LuxeAdapt Firm is actually like a medium. It is slightly firmer than the ProAdapt medium. LuxeAdapt Firm is to die for! I think you will like it!
I have slept on a Cloud Luxe for a year and had low back pain because it was too soft. The local store is recommending the LuxeAdapt Soft, stating that the extra high density foam layer will offer more support. But this video equates the LuxeAdapt Soft with the Cloud Luxe. Would the new model be the same level of support or better support?
Hi Grace -- Thanks for your question. Overall, we certainly feel good about our assessment that the LuxeAdapt Soft will have a generally similar feel to the Cloud Luxe, though with not quite as much softness (as we stated in the video). This would also make it fairly close to the Cloud Elite. That said, it is not identical to either of those. In terms of what you are being told by the store, if they are stating that the LuxeAdapt will provide categorically better support for any sleeper on account of the "high density foam layer," then I'm afraid that is just marketing. "Better support" is just a colloquialism -- what good support means for any given person is that their spine is held in a neutral position during the night. The mattress that will do this best will vary based on your weight, body shape, primary sleep position, and other factors. So no mattress offers categorically "better support." If, on the other hand, they are stating that based on their specific assessment of you and your unique requirements, they believe the LuxeAdapt will provide more neutral spinal alignment in your case, then that's entirely possible -- and without having the benefit of seeing you on that mattress, I would not be in a position to confirm or deny their assessment. I hope that's helpful.
Thank you for the detailed analysis, presented in a way that I can understand. You are the best! I have a 2013 rhapsody that I'm trying to replace. I love it. What is your recommendation for the equivalent feel in their 2018 line? Trying to decide between the Luxe-adapt and the Contour Rhapsody Luxe (the latter of which is I think discontinued).
Hi John -- Thanks for your question (and your kind words!). You are correct that the Contour Rhapsody is being phased out. So although it does have a very similar feel to the previous Rhapsody, it will be increasingly hard to find. In terms of the newer options that will have the most similar feel to the 2013 Rhapsody, I would go with the Luxe-Adapt Firm. It may also be helpful to know that there are 4 new Tempur-Breeze models coming out in the next few months as well, 2-3 of which have a pretty similar feel to the Rhapsody IMHO.
@@catsrgreen I'd recommend checking out our coverage of the Tempur-Breeze line, which you can find here: www.goodbed.com/reviews/tempur-breeze-mattress-preview/ The Contour-Rhapsody models were pretty firm and IIRC the 12/13 Rhapsody model was too. Assuming that's correct, I think you'll find all of the Breeze models to have a similar feel, at least from a softness and contouring standpoint. We rate them all between Very Firm and Firm on our softness scale, and the Rhapsody model you have would have likely fallen in that same range. I hope that's helpful.
Hi Ruckus - this is my personal experience with The Luxe Adapt soft. (And, yes, here I am one year later looking at mattresses...). Anyhoo - the mattress started out almost perfect, slightly longer to warm up to my body and conform, but I like that feel. I hesitated getting a Soft because I know memory foam in general softens as room temperature goes up. Yup, this is what happened to me. In winter months, room temp about 62 F , mattress is very good. In summer, room temp above 70, the mattress gets way too soft. In addition, in the 15 months or so that I’ve owned this, it has definitely gotten softer in general. I’m now looking at firmer options. By the way, I weigh about 105 lbs so I don’t indent the bed much. I imagine a heavier person would really find this bed too soft. If I were you, I’d consider swapping this Soft for a firmer one within your 90 return period. I do like the TempurPedic feel very much and am I’m considering the Luxe adapt firm instead. My wallet hates me...
@@severineg8702 was it ever a good mattress? When did you know it was too soft...the back pain, the heat ect? I want to love this bed. Laying down feels good but I just can’t seem to get a solid night sleep without being in pain. I’m mainly a back sleeper. I tired the firm in the store and it was so hard
@@Ruckus9999 Yes, it was definitely good the first 6 months or so, in the cooler months. Now, 15 months old it has softened due to use as well as, in my opinion, being affected more by the warmer room temperatures. If you are a back sleeper I could see this as way too soft for you. I’m a side sleeper with neck, back and hip issues. It really felt good initially but now my lower back is completely tweaked when I wake up. It’s awfully painful. That said, when I first get into bed at night, even now it still feels great - just a bit softer. However, my body heat and the warmer outside temperatures just make it mushy by morning. I actually feel the Luxe is a great mattress as far as memory foam and keeping cooler. By that I mean, I don’t wake up sweating, I don’t feel overheated. I actually considered the Firm but was talked out of it. I am tempted to buy it because I now know that it will soften with use and the temperatures.
@@severineg8702 I agree I love the material feels great but I just don't see it holding up. The only way I can sleep through the night is on my back. If I'm on my side which I believe that this matress is mainly for, I toss and turn all night. Have you tried the medium proadapt that's what I'm leaning more towards. Are you gonna swap? Are you able to sleep a full night?
@@Ruckus9999 I am kind of considering the Medium Adapt, but the Luxe ones are supposed to be a bit cooler, so I’m leaning that way. I got my Luxe in late 2019, so not sure if the ProAdapt now have a cooler fabric. HOWEVER: I totally forgot this happened: I got the Luxe first in November of 2019. I was traveling a lot and only slept in it about 10 days before I noticed extreme softening of the middle. Like I said, I’m only 105 lbs and I like to sleep on the edges, never the middle even though it’s a Queen. By softening- I mean way worse than this bed is now. I called TempurPedic and they immediately agreed something was wrong and no questions asked, delivered a new mattress within a few days. They declared it defective (without even seeing it). It did not count as part of my 90 day swap out. I still had a whole new warranty and 90 days on the new one. I thought the customer service was excellent. Perhaps yours is also defective. I’d give them a call. It was definitely a different feel than what I have now. I actually don’t think mine now is defective. It’s just wearing in and the warmer weather thing. I really encourage you to call customer service.
Hi Billy -- Thanks for your question. The new Breeze models will be hitting stores between now and Memorial Day, with the exact arrival date varying by retailer and by region. We will be doing an overview of them that should be ready to publish by the time they are released. If you haven't already, you can subscribe to our UA-cam channel or follow us on Facebook to be notified when it comes out. One thing I can tell you in the meantime is that unlike the current Breeze models, the new lineup will not be "Breeze versions" of non-Breeze models -- rather, Breeze will be a separate and distinct line unto itself that does not map back to the ProAdapt or LuxeAdapt models. It will, however, have two tiers: ProBreeze and LuxeBreeze. I hope that's helpful.
Hi Billy -- Thanks again for your previous question about the new Tempur-Breeze mattresses. FYI, in case it's still relevant for you, I wanted to let you know that we've just released our overview of the whole line-up for 2019, which includes 4 new Breeze models in total. You can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/w8khinNUCdE/v-deo.html I hope you find it helpful -- if so, please give it a thumbs-up to make it easier for other mattress shoppers to find.
so i wonder what tempur pedic would charge if they still made there first beds with all nice high density foam. like 15k? haha. Sad things get cheaper and yet more expensive.
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. In general, I think that Tempur-Pedic still makes the highest-quality memory foam mattresses out there. That said, they have been cutting back on their foam density over the past 10 years. While I do believe that these changes are fundamentally good-intentioned -- e.g., intended to improve things like feel, comfort, temperature regulation, etc. -- IMHO they are also most likely detrimental to the overall comfort life of these products, which to most people is an important element of "quality." Now, foam density is *certainly* not everything when it comes to quality -- there are plenty of benefits to Tempur's proprietary formulation(s) that go beyond density, especially in terms of the entirely subjective matter of "comfort," which you also mentioned. In fact, density is not even everything when it comes to just the longevity aspect of quality. But, to the extent that it is a factor, Tempur's changes over the past 10 years have given newer market entrants an opportunity to close the gap on this front. Loom & Leaf is one such player, although moreso than Tempur-Pedic, they also incorporate some less-proven components into their products. Although, like Tempur-Pedic, they most likely have very good intentions for doing this, IMHO it does introduce the potential for a "weak link" that an otherwise similar Tempur product would not have. For this reason, I would not put them on par with Tempur-Pedic. That said, your question was whether they are in the same league -- if that "league" is simply higher-end memory foam mattresses, then sure, that would be a reasonable statement. I hope that's helpful.
GoodBed hi and thank you for responding. It actually did help. Just a quick FYI, I tried the zen haven and didn’t like the latex feel so exchanged it for the loom and leaf firm (I’m a heavyweight) but alas it is too firm, so now I’m waiting on the relaxed firm option to arrive. I’ve had a tempurpedic cloud supreme breeze for the last almost 8 years and I do love the memory foam feel but needed a new mattress for the guest room so I decided to put the tempur in there and get myself a new one. As far as I can tell, based on your reply, I’m basically getting the generic version of tempurpedic, which often times generics are just as good ie; fruit loops lol. But if it falls short in the long run, at least I can buy 3 loom and leaf beds for the price of 1 tempurpedic. So wish me luck and thanks again for your review and especially for your response.
I just spent over 2 hrs in the tempurpedic store testing all the new models today. My past mattresses I slept on the cloud lux for 1 year which was way too soft and caused low back pain. Slept on rhapsody lux for 2 years. Very firm and hot. Now i have a cloud supreme breeze i have been on for 3 years and i would say the most perfect bed. But i just like replacing every 3 years for new. I really liked the new luxe adapt firm the best. I felt it was in between the rhapsody and supreme breeze. If you remember the contour luxe breeze that is the most compairable with the luxe adapt firm in my opinion. I agree with your studies on these mattresses. The tempurpedic sales person told me they were going to introduce the breeze covers on the new mattresses in 2019 raising the price for a king luxeadapt firm to around $6k. Without the breeze $5k.
Hi Tom -- Thanks for your previous comment about this. FYI, in case it's still relevant for you, I wanted to let you know that we've just released our overview of the new Tempur-Breeze line-up that you mentioned. It includes 4 new Breeze models in total for 2019. You can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/w8khinNUCdE/v-deo.html I hope you find it helpful -- if so, please give it a thumbs-up to make it easier for other mattress shoppers to find.
hey there! we bought our basic tempur pedic 16 years ago & the motion cancellation was great but now it's no longer good. in your professional opinion, which mattress out of all the brands/models out there offers the BEST motion cancellation? i just need to not feel when my husband moves! that is my only requirement in life right now :))
Hi Elisabeth -- Thanks for your question, and sorry I missed this earlier. The truth is that the majority of mattresses with at least 3 inches of slow-responding memory foam on top that use either an all-foam or pocketed-coil construction will offer as near to perfect motion isolation as is possible, so it would be impossible to pick a single "best" from that rather large group. Going further, there is another even larger class of mattresses right below the first class that we would say offers "very good" motion isolation -- meaning, more than good enough for the vast majority of people, though perhaps not for people who have a particularly acute concern in this area. I would actually put basically all Tempur-Pedic mattresses in the first category -- meaning, near-perfect motion isolation. As for why yours no longer offers excellent motion isolation, this is rather curious since nothing should really change with the motion isolation properties of an all-foam mattress over time. If yours no longer offers excellent motion isolation, my guess is that something might have happened with the frame or platform underneath the mattress. Not that you would want to sleep on the floor, but to illustrate the point, it would be very surprising to me if you were to still experience significant motion disturbance if that mattress were on the floor. In that situation, the only thing that could really transfer motion is the stretch cover, which is typically a very subtle form of motion disturbance. As an aside, if you're shopping around, this question is actually a great litmus test of how trustworthy someone is as an information resource. If they answer this by giving you a specific brand or a list of models that have the "best motion isolation," you can know instantly that they are simply trying to sell you those products (or that they don't know what they're talking about). I hope that's helpful.
You are absolutely right, it’s the bedframe… We did switch it out. I’m sure if I put it on the floor it would be perfect! Thank you so much for your expertise in this matter :-)
Thank you. Great oveview. Are there any reviews available on lux adapt models? Cant seem to find any online. I have a tempur pedic adapt medium that im not content with. I feel that I sink right through the comfort layer into the support layer which is kind of hard and uncomfortabe and was wondering how the luxe adapt soft model would compare if I upgraded? Thank you
Hi Frank -- Thanks for your question (and kind words). I'm afraid we have not done an in-depth review of either of the LuxeAdapt models, so this video would be the closest thing available. That said, one thing you might find useful as a point of comparison is to hear our equivalent overview of the Adapt and ProAdapt mattresses. You can see those in this video: ua-cam.com/video/1fNsPEyYw8c/v-deo.html I hope that's helpful for you.
Bought recently a pro adapt medium. I'm finding it a bit to hard most nights or laying in bed watching tv for extended periods. Just for fun and a test I threw a Novofoam topper I had on it. Felt a great softness layer but it still maintained the deeper contouring and correct postute feeling. But for brand new bed it's important to get the right bed not put a topper on it. My question is should I switch to the pro adapt soft model or now that this luxeadapt is available give that a try. I'm in Canada, I need to check if Sleep country carries the Luxe. Anyhow, love good bed videos and comments. They have all been very helpful. Thank you.
Mike Delgaty I just bought the pro adapt soft it is firm too but soft. But it has a softer rating than the New Luxe adapt. It is the softest rated new model. That’s why I bought it.
Bill Brooks how do you like your ProAdapt Soft now (assuming you still have it). Did if soften up? I ordered a LuxeAdapt Soft as though you’re right that the Proadapt is supposed to be the softest (according to Tempur-pedic), many customers though feel that the LuxeAdapt is. Weird, I know!
Hey Mike, maybe they’ve changed it since you made this video, but the top layer of the firm isn’t APR+, it’s original Tempur material with the APR+ under that. I ordered the ProBreeze medium hybrid but I’m finding it’s not as supportive or as pressure relieving as I’d hoped for. After spending time on both the luxe soft and luxe firm, I’m stuck between the two. I really like both lol I’m a side/stomach sleeper if that makes sense.
Hi Tommy. Thanks for the comment -- you're correct. On both models now, the Tempur APR+ is the second layer of foam. We'll look into when that changed. If your main concern is pressure relief on your side, then the Soft version is probably the way to go. But you don't say how heavy you are -- when stomach sleeping, your hips might sink in too much (common issue with soft memory foam). One thought is to go with the firm for stomach-sleeping support, then add a mattress topper if you want extra softness. Either way, have you take our quiz? You can enter all your needs and preferences, and our quiz will turn up mattress that should be a good fit for you. You can start the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/quiz/
Im really curious about these since it seems like tempurpedic skimped on the apr and tempur material in the proadapt firm. It really disappoints me. I spent nearly $3000 only to discover its mostly comprised of hard rigid quick-response high density foam that i'd never sleep on alone. Then I learn they staggered the release of their best model that has much more of the material. It's hard to believe the production of foam products is expensive. Its the research behind the technology that cost $$$$. Which makes me wonder why they'd make a less comfortable mattress just to make a proper mattress more marketable. Disappointed and I have no recourse.
Jesse N if you bought your bed within the last 4 months you most likely can still go to the store and swap it out and only the pay difference plus a redelivery/small restocking fee as long as your have a mattress protector
This is old but who the heck wrote this?? I had the rhapsody and it was great but I got a little old and started to sink in so far I'd wake up in a crater and in hammock pain in my middle and lower back. I now have the contour elite which is like the same as the pro adapt firm and it's so much better. They make different mattresses for different people it's not their fault you bought the wrong one.
@@Bennyblades44 who the heck wrote it? Who do you think? You can read, right? You don't own a proadapt firm so you can't speak from experience, not that I would value your response if you did. Since I didn't comment on the comfort of the mattress, you have no idea where I stand with that... I did however comment on the quality of the materials used compared to the premium version that was release months later. And yes, I stand by that 3 years later. Bad business, and I won't buy direct from temperpedic again.
@@cornholius premium version??? You mean firm version?? Skimped on materials??? You mean literally the exact materials minus the breeze feature and a different configuration for less cushion for a more firm feel?? You're lost. You're telling me I don't own the pro adapt firm when I own the contour elite which feels virtually identical. That's like saying only have the 2020 jeep Cherokee and it's 2021 so I know nothing about jeep Cherokees. I had the damn rhapsody which is the same as the newer Luxe and it was so much less supportive and uncomfortable. Like sleeping in Clark Griswolds sled. To some people the pro adapt firm is better than the Luxe hate to break it to you. Enjoy your purple or whatever trash bed you have now.
How does the luxe adapt soft compare to the serta icomfort cf4000 plush? We are having such a hard time deciding. Nobody local to us stocks the icomfort series so we aren’t able to try it out. We love the sinking in feel of the luxe adapt, but we like the price point of the icomfort.
Hi Josh. Tempur-pedic is known for that slow, melting memory foam -- it's the cornerstone of their business. The Serta iComfort CF4000 has a lot of softness, but it doesn't have as much of that 'melting' feeling as a Tempur-pedic will have. Hope that helps!
Hi Heidi -- Thanks for your question. In terms of the differences between the ProAdapt and LuxeAdapt lines, it mostly comes down to 1) the amount of total memory foam (ie, Tempur material) in the mattress, and 2) the addition of their premium Tempur-APR+ foam. We discuss these a bit more in the section of the video that starts at 0:39. In terms of the LuxeAdapt Firm vs ProAdapt Firm, the biggest difference in feel is that the LuxeAdapt Firm is going to have a bit more softness. We get into some more of the specifics of the softness and feel of the Firm vs Soft versions later in this video, esp in the section that starts at 4:36. For comparison, you should also check out our overview of the Tempur-ProAdapt lineup (which specifically discusses the ProAdapt Firm model) here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-line/tempur-proadapt/ I hope that's helpful.
What value is "coolness to the touch" when you have a mattress cover and sheets? I don't understand how any of this helps unless you are laying directly on the mattress? What am I missing?
Hi David -- This is a great question. There is no doubt that there will be less coolness to the "touch" the more layers of fabric are between you and the mattress. That said, the material should still have a temperature-regulating impact once the heat from your body reaches it, which certainly would still happen even through sheets and a protector. Think of it like the marble example we used in the video. If you put a sheet on top of a slab of marble, it would certainly reduce the coolness to the touch (vs touching the marble directly). But if you were to then lay on that sheet (on top of the marble), there would still be more of a cooling effect than if you laid on that same sheet on top of wood. I hope that's helpful.
Seems like tempurpdic is skimping on the density of the basefoams on all their new models, this is disappointing. 1.6 lb basefoam is low quality, won’t last as long and won’t support heavier weights as well as their higher density foams they don’t seem to be using anymorw
These “cool” covers make no sense to me. I’ve got a mattress cover and sheets on my bed. How can these cool covers help in any way unless you are sleeping directly on them?!
Hi David -- Thanks for your comment. This is a very fair point. While we can't scientifically measure the effect, our hunch is the same as yours -- that sheets and bedding are going to negate at least some of the 'cool feel' of a cover. That said, it should still have some ability to absorb heat from your body. Imagine if you put a sheet over a piece of marble vs. on a wood floor -- it's a more extreme example to illustrate the point, but certainly the marble would still feel cooler. I hope that's helpful.
Just slept on the LuxeAdapt Firm for the first time last night and I really liked it. It was not life-changing or transformative, but it was very comfortable and I had plenty of support. The mattress really is hard when you lie on it, but then you immediately start sinking and it contours to you perfectly. It's clearly a high quality mattress and so far I'm very happy with my purchase.
Hi Jeff -- Thanks for your comment. I'm very glad to hear that you're happy with your choice! FYI, the best way to share your experience with other shoppers would be as a review on GoodBed. This is where more people who are considering this product will find it. If you're willing, here's a link to where you can post your review of this mattress:

Finally a comparison video of old tempur mattresses to the new lineup. Thank you !!
You're welcome! We realize that many people are very brand-loyal, and that owners of older Tempur-pedic mattresses want to know how the newer versions compare. Glad our video was helpful!
Thank you for this Amazing review !!!
Your review just helped me to make my final decision.......
I just bought the LuxeAdapt Firm, split CA King with the TEMPUR-Ergo Extend !!! Thank you so much again for your help !!!!
Our pleasure Samir! Thanks so much for your comment and your feedback. I'm very glad this was helpful for you and hope your new mattress is a great match for you.
hey samir, is there any motion transfer? i am such a night sleeper & feel each time my husband moves. i need total motion cancellation- if it exists :)
After a year would you buy again?
I use to have a grandbed. I am so disappointed they no longer manufacture it. These new models aren’t as good as that was. Is there any way I can buy a grandbed?
My tempur pedic rep (I work at an Ashley store) said that the apr+ and regular apr have the same amount of pressure relief just that apr+ is more contouring and that the luxadapt is more supportive.
Hi Jesse -- Thanks for your comment. Pressure relief and contouring are two sides of the same coin. One of the things that makes memory foam a superior pressure relief material is its ability to contour more closely to your body. The more points of contact your body has with a surface, the less pressure there is on any one point of contact.
To illustrate this, think of lying on two different beds of nails -- one with the normal amount of nails and the other with half as many. You're lying on the same material in each case, but the one with fewer nails is going to hurt a lot more because your weight is distributed over fewer points of contact.
Contouring *can* also help with spinal alignment (which is what actually matters when one talks about "support"). This is especially true in the case of side sleepers, the position in which most people's curves are most prominent. The curvier they are, the more conformance they will need to hold their spine in a neutral position while they sleep.
That said, the idea that any mattress is "more supportive" for everyone is just marketing. For example, for someone that has fewer curves, adding conformance can actually work against them, causing their heaviest parts to sink too far into the mattress and reducing spinal alignment.
I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed: "...for someone that has fewer curves, adding conformance can actually work against them, causing their heaviest parts to sink too far into the mattress and reducing spinal alignment." Wow! That's the most helpful peice of information and a revelation. (I don't study matrrasses as a hobby... :-) )Your's is the best of four Tempurpedic reviews I've watched. THANK YOU!
@@dazimon Thanks. :) I am very glad to hear that.
FWIW, while I can 100% appreciate someone wanting to get other viewpoints (as would I), you should be aware that there aren't any other mattress review sites that possess both accurate information and objective expertise -- meaning there aren't any other mattress review sources that are actually trustworthy. Many supposedly unbiased review sites even have direct corporate ties to mattress brands. Typically these ties are disclosed only on a page of fine print on their site, if they're disclosed at all. We've listed those sites here: www.goodbed.com/pages/biased-mattress-review-websites/
There are also some dead give-aways to look for that will "out" a mattress reviewer as a shyster. We've listed and explained those here: www.goodbed.com/pages/untrustworthy-mattress-review-websites/
It's become an incredibly seedy underbelly I'm afraid... I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed, yep. I've gathered as much. It'll be interesting consulting your list and see if any of the suspect ones I've visited are on it. I know that regardless of industry, there are "review" sites where the brand owners register a "review" domain and magically their brand is on top, just ahead of the real industry leaerd. Buyer beware. You are doing a great service to consumers and society in general. Ingegrity. Thank you, and God bless you.
@@dazimon Thanks again for your very kind words. And yes, this is often exactly how it happens. Buyer beware indeed.
If you're willing to share, I'd be curious to hear any examples you've seen of this type of thing in other industries. I've looked around a little to try to see how the FTC has dealt with this in other industries, but so far haven't been able to find any good examples that seem to approximate what's been happening in this industry.
Also, just to clarify one other thing, if you don't see a site on the list I sent above, this just means that they haven't been DIRECTLY backed a mattress brand -- but the absence of guilt in that one particular area does not by any means make them innocent.
Almost all of the sites that aren't included on that list are still very much "pay to play." This means that their lists of the "best mattresses" are carefully curated with one objective -- to show you the brands that make them the most money. These sites have no actual expertise in mattresses -- they just use the fake disguise of an "unbiased expert" to make you want to buy the mattresses that they want to sell. Their only real expertise is in SEO, and as long as they continue to fool Google / UA-cam into ranking them highly, brands will feel that they have to work with them.
That's why I included the other article, which explains how to spot an untrustworthy mattress review site more generally. TLDR: The best clue is to look for lists of the "best mattresses." These lists sounds great if you think mattresses are an appliance (like a toaster), but once you realize that mattresses are about personal fit (like pants), you realize that having someone tell you the "best mattress of 2020" makes no more sense than having them tell you that the "best pants of 2020" are the Dockers boot cut with 36 waist and 32 length. For context, our algorithm takes into account literally dozens of different factors about your needs and preferences in order to create a personalized list of the best mattresses for *you*. So even the idea of a universal list of the "best mattress for side sleepers" is a complete fantasy.
But of course, these guys know full well that their information is steering countless people into bad purchases. They don't care though, because it was never supposed to help people in the first place. It was just supposed to sell mattresses and make them money. And that it does -- LOTS of money. "Best mattress" lists are the most lucrative pages on their sites, by far, which is why these lists will continue to be the best sure-fire way to spot a scam mattress review site.
I hope that's helpful.
how is this one for back pain
I hear that the LuxeAdapt Soft gets buttery soft to the touch and this can relieve back pain. Some people think it sinks in too much for overweight people trying to sleep on their back in which case it can cause back pain. I’m a 145 pound back sleeper who ordered one and am hoping it’s good for back sleepers! Some people say it’s the best bed they owned.
My mattress nightmare pain has been going on for 3-4 years now. Started off with all kings,a Beauty Rest, Beauty Rest Black, Adapt Medium Hybrid, Luxe Adapt Soft, Pro Adapt Medium, and currently a Pro Adapt Medium Hybrid. The Pro Adapt Hybrid has been the worst so far, the coils are noisy and the mattress is lumpy. Every single one of these mattresses have given me bad back(sciatica) hip and shoulder pain. My couch is still the most comfortable thing to sleep on. I’m going to do a full return with the Pro Adapt Hybrid, not an exchange. I will then purchase a Luxe Adapt Firm or Pro Adapt Firm and this will be the last Tempur-Pedic that I will buy, keeping it or returning it. I will not Exchange for it, because I’m not getting stuck with an expensive mattress that I don’t want.
Has anyone experienced bad smell from their mattress, if so how long does it last.
I did. When I bought from a retailer versus from when I bought directly from Tempur-pedic. And the smell lasted almost a whole month! I opened windows and turned on a fan. And walked on it to open up the cells. Thought the smell would never go away!
I want the temperdic cloud lux model, but I don't want to pay that price. Is there a good alternative to the cloud lux?

Hi there, just got the luxeadapt soft and it's been great. We put a waterproof cover over it but I was wondering if it's redundant because there is already a zip off cover on the mattress. Is the included cover waterproof or would you recommend using the additional one we bought. Thanks!
Hi Matt -- Thanks for your question, and sorry we're just seeing this. The waterproof cover you added is definitely not redundant. IIRC the zip-off Tempur cover is washable (or, at a minimum, spot-cleanable), however it is NOT waterproof. So your mattress id definitely getting additional protection from the cover you added.
I hope that's helpful.
Matt is the LuxeAdapt Soft good for back sleeping?? Do you sleep on your back on it??
Nice job. Well explained. We got the ProAdapt Medium Hybrid a week ago and it's simply not working out. Sore hips and shoulders, tingling in arms. Before that we had a 3" memory foam topper on a Kingsdown mattress. My question is, what next? ProAdapt Soft, or Luxe Adapt soft? Thanks!
Hi Franklin -- Thanks for your comment. It sounds like the Medium Hybrid didn't provide enough pressure relief for you. Without more information, it's impossible to say for sure what was the cause of this, but in most cases, a mattress with more softness will be an improvement on this front. For this objective, I would recommend the ProAdapt Soft over the LuxeAdapt Soft.
I hope that's helpful.
Goodbed why do you prefer the ProAdapt Soft over the LuxeAdapt Soft? I have the medium Hybrid and it’s too hard and am awaiting the LuxeAdapt Soft to arrive as an exchange. Did I make a mistake? I’m a back sleeper
@@MegaFirstclass we have the med hybrid now and hate it! I want to exchange for soft and leaning toward luxe until I read this lol. can’t decide which one. Did you end up liking it?
Thank you.
Which mattress is better for support and pressure relief with hip and back pain for 220 lbs man and a 160lb woman, Luxe Adapt soft or Pro Adapt soft? Do they basically feel the same? I have tried the Luxe Adapt soft and it feels really good, but I can’t find a Pro Adapt soft anywhere near me to try and compare. I just don’t want to spend the extra money if they’re basically the same bed in comfort. We now sleep on/dealing with a 1 year 3 month Adapt Hybrid Medium and it’s like a brick giving us back and hip pain. We are trying to get away from the hybrid/coils and go back to all foam again.
Thank you!
Hi and thanks for the question. On our softness scale, we classify the LuxeAdapt Soft and the ProAdapt Soft both as a Medium Soft on our scale -- so to us, they had a similar level of softness and cushioning depth. For the sake of comparison, we classified the Adapt Medium as Medium FIRM -- so a good deal more firm than the two soft models you are considering.
Hope that's helpful!
@@goodbed Thank You! I know it’s a hard question to answer because you’re in the business, but your opinion, is the comforting pretty much the same between the Luxe Adapt soft and the Pro Adapt soft? Is it worth spending the extra money for the Luxe Adapt?
Thank you again.
Yes -- as we said before, we thought that both are medium soft, so that means a similar "feel."
Tempur-pedic's Tempur-LuxeAdapt mattresses feature a new cooling cover that's removable and machine washable, along with a new memory material called Tempur-APR+ that the company says is meant to improve pressure relief. The 13" tall LuxeAdapt mattresses are sisters to the less expensive 12" Tempur-ProAdapt mattresses, which share the same removable and washable cooling cover, and have less of the Tempur material. So that's the big difference between the two. So whether the LuxeAdapt's new foam and taller height is "worth it" to you is purely a judgement call!
@@goodbed Thank you very much! I appreciate the help that you’ve given us to make a choice.
@@goodbed The ProAdapts don't have APR+ material. They have the regular APR - which is a different substance from what I understand.
Great review. Would you say the cloud luxe has a higher density base? And if so is there any real reason to go with the newer model? Is Apr+ worth it?
I currently have the new bed in a box cloud from TP and it's far too firm for me. 6'1 175 lbs side sleeper with shoulder and lower back issues. The new cloud firmness causes discomfort in my shoulders.
I actually, just today, placed an order for a LuxeAdapt Firm mattress at a local storefront. Honestly I'm surprised by all the hate that I've been seeing in other videos for this mattress in particular. I laid on it in the store and damn near passed out right on the spot. But, granted, I'm currently living in a furnished, studio apartment and the mattress I'm stuck using is an old/metal coil mattress that's probably been around since the Raegan administration...so anything is better at this point. But, I digress.
In your opinion, do you feel the LuxeAdapt firm model will hold up alright, long-term, with a 5'9"...170lb side/back sleeper like myself?
Hi and congrats on owning your new mattress! As part of our look at this collection, we take a detailed look at the materials and construction of the mattress. Tempur-Pedic memory foam, in our view, really sets the standard in terms of durability and quality. We didn't identify any red flags that would lead us to think it might not last as long as any other mainstream mattress.
Thanks for writing!
How have u been liking it??
@@khiabetcuadra7306 Hello. I've had the mattress now for about 8 or 9 months and it has been worth every penny. Now, in the beginning, it was rough. The first 3 weeks or so made me question my purchase because the mattress was, indeed, FIRM. Like, stiff. I actually went back to the mattress store after the first week to ask the manager about it and he told me that the mattresses that get used on the store floor from the factory are 'preconditioned.' He told me to give it 3 weeks to a month and that if it didn't improve they'd let me get something different.
Well, they were right. After about the first month it began to feel great! Just having to break it in slightly I suppose. Work the air pockets and such out of the memory foam. But, now, I'm very satisfied and would advise you and others to not be swayed by the negative reviews. They were probably just impatient people. Good luck!
@@jester9159 just wondering… what made you choose the firm vs the luxadapt soft?
@Golds-worthy I just prefer a firmer surface to sleep on. Softer mattresses have always left me hurting afterward.
i weigh 185 and am 5 9 have a pro breeze medium hybrid, dont like it. do u recommend luxe adapt soft of pro adapt soft. the pro breeze isn't conforming
The pro-adapt soft is like a marshmallow. VERY soft and not terribly supportive (I'm 190 and 5"8 so we're not that dissimilar). The Luxe Adapt soft is more supportive for sure and has a medium soft feel i LOVED. My problem is that my hips sank in too deeply on that one and I needed more support. So I went with the LuxeAdapt Firm -- which feels very similar to the pro breeze medium but has more conformance (in my opinion.) I would check out both the firm and soft luxes in a store and see what feels better. I would NOT recommend the proadapt soft -- but again, try it out. You may love it??
I am a hot sleeper (get hot in the middle of the night) and just ordered a lax adapt firm. I did not like the breeze line as it was taking too long to adapt my body when I switched positions. Do you think Lux adapt firm will be too hot for me?
Hi Igor -- This is almost impossible to say with certainty. In general, we often tell people that if you don't have a tendency to sleep hot, there's a good chance you won't need to worry about sleeping hot on a memory foam mattress either.
But in your case, since you do tend to sleep hot, it is more likely that this will be an issue for you on a memory foam mattress. And it's certainly more likely that it will be an issue on the LuxeAdapt Firm relative to the LuxeBreeze Firm.
That being said, if you slept on the LuxeBreeze and did NOT have any overheating issues, then there is still some chance that you won't have any such issues on the LuxeAdapt either. And of the two LuxeAdapts, you should certainly be better off on the Firm (vs the Soft) from a temperature standpoint, so you made the right choice on that front.
Sorry I can't be of more help on this one, but please keep us posted!
Thank you so much for your reply. I guess the only way to find out is to try it out. It’s nice that Tempur-pedic gives you 90 days to do that. Thanks again.
@@IgorOchev My pleasure. And yes, I would say this is true with temperature even more so than most other mattress attributes. If you decide to give one of these a try, please let us know how it goes!
I am trying a lux adapt soft and helps my shoulder and legs but doesn’t seem to give me enough back support. I would like to try another one but I’m worried about the Firm lLux adapt being too firm! I wish this one came in a medium firm but it does not. The pro breeze comes in a medium firm ass and I’m wondering if it still has the APR+ for pressure relief? because I have fibromyalgia
Hi Cindy. Thanks for the question. The LUXEbreeze models have the APR+ memory foam. We actually just published a new review on the LUXEbreeze, which may be helpful to you: www.goodbed.com/reviews/tempur-breeze-mattress-preview/
The PRObreeze models do not have the APR+ memory foam.
As for the LuxeAdapt Firm vs Soft, there is a pretty big difference in softness between the two, as we describe at 4:36 in the video. Both have a lot of cushioning depth and conformance, which some people (including Tempur-Pedic) equate to softness. Also, both have a lot of memory feel, where the mattress really melts beneath you as you warm it up. However, the top foam layers of the Firm model are much firmer, which gives it much more surface firmness and less cushy softness than the Soft. So the Firm version might work for you, especially if you are on the heavier side. It might be worth trying in a store.
Hope that helps!
Cindy, I have the LuxeADapt firm and it really is more like a perfect medium than a firm. I was also worried about the back support on the soft, but this one is really good. It's like a really dense marshmallow -- firm and soft at the same time. It's kind of perfect.
Thanks because I believe I’m going to try the Firm version.
I think the saw one that I have feels great but it sinks in a lot more in the middle core of your body and I’m only about 125 pounds so it just doesn’t seem as supportive for someone that has low back hip issues, thank you for commenting
What about the Medium Hybrid!?!?!?!?!?
Hi there -- The Medium Hybrid came out in 2024. This video is for the version of LuxeAdapt that ran from 2018-2024, which did not include a Medium Hybrid. For coverage of the current lineup, see here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-line/tempur-luxeadapt/
We have a 2005 TempurPedic Deluxe (10"). We are going to replace it, and want one as close to the Deluxe's characteristics as possible. What current model would that be?
Hi Bob -- Thanks for your question. Based on what I recall of that mattress, the LuxeAdapt Firm could be pretty close, but I would probably look at the ProAdapt Firm as well. I hope that's helpful.
LuxeAdapt Firm is like the Deluxe. Pro Adapt Firm is like the Classic.
Would the LuxeAdapt SOFT be a good choice for someone that weighs 340 pounds? Do you think the way it (sinks) or (adapts) will leave an impression or indentation on the mattress rather faster with my weight ?
Hi Tavo -- thanks for the question. GENERALLY speaking, a soft, all-foam mattress is not the best support choice for a person in that weight range for a few reasons. The most important aspect of any mattress is spinal-alignment and support. Our concern with a soft all-foam mattress for heavier individuals is that the soft foams will allow a person's hips to sink -- and often, just keep sinking -- creating arching in the back, which can lead to back pain.
For heavier people that prefer a soft feel, we will often recommend going with a firmer hybrid mattress (that's a mattress with a pocketed-coil support unit) that will give the back support that's needed, then add a soft mattress topper to give the feel that you like.
So even before considering how long a mattress will last, it needs to meet your basic need of back support and spinal alignment.
We'd really recommend first taking our GoodBed Quiz -- answer some questions about your needs and preferences, and our algorithm can give you a 'match score' for each bed that tells you how its features line up against your needs. You can start the quiz here: www.goodbed.com/mattress-finder/quiz/
Hope that helps!
Do you think maybe the Luxeadapt Firm would be a better choice?
With my weight would that be too firm for me?
Because i see it adapts to your body a lot more than other tempurpedic...
Hi Tavo -- definitely take the quiz. Then you can see how a mattress lines up against all your needs.
@@MrRgmralph LuxeAdapt Firm is better for you. Im 225 and I like it!!!
@@johnyang1420 But he's 120 pounds heavier than you are. I would advise he look at BIG FIG mattresses which are designed for heavier folks.
I currently own a Tempur Pedic Celebrity mattress from over 10 years ago. I am replacing it and found your review of the Lux quite informative. Can you tell me which of the LuxAdapt line is more similar to the Celebrity; soft or firm?
Hi Mitchell. Thanks for the question. I know it seems straightforward, but it's actually tricky. That's because Tempur-Pedic doesn't maintain information on old product lines, and GoodBed wasn't around 10 years ago. However, the Celebrity was an all-foam mattress, so any of the Tempur-pedic all-foam beds will be in the same ballpark.
The other reason it's tricky is that our mattresses naturally soften up over the years, so the mattress as it was 10 years ago when you bought would feel very different today in comparison -- it happens so slowly that your body just adapts over the years. So the mattress you may have bought as a firm might feel more like a medium today.
Believe me -- I know it's not helpful to you that I can't say "oh, the Tempur-Pedic xyz is exactly like your old Celebrity mattress" -- but keep in mind that anyone who does is full of it. Your best bet is to hit up the Tempur-Pedic store (or a retailer who carries the brand) and give it a try. Before you buy, make sure you can exchange for a different "feel" or model if you get it home and don't love it. If you order directly from Tempur-Pedic, you get a 90-day in-home trial; you can return the mattress less the shipping fees.
I hope that's somewhat helpful!
Mitchell did you end up buying a LuxeAdapt l? If so the soft or firm? And do you like it (if you bought it)?
Thanks for the very clear review of the luxe adapt mattresses.
A quick question comparing the pro-adapt to the luxe-adapt mattress. My BF prefers the feel of the ProAdapt medium and I much prefer the feel of the LuxeAdapt soft mattress (split king). The two mattresses are different heights (11" for the pro-adapt and 12" for the luxe-adapt) and so one of us will need to compromise or have a split king bed of differing heights. How does the luxe-adapt firm compare to the pro-adapt medium? Would you think the pro-adapt medium to be closer in feel to the Luxe-adapt firm or would there be less difference between the pro-adapt soft to the luxe-align soft.
Thanks!
Hi Janet. That's a knotty problem!
We judged the LuxeAdapt Firm to be quite a bit firmer than the ProAdapt Medium.
Similarly, we thought the ProAdapt Soft was softer than the LuxeAdapt Soft, but the difference was not as great as that between the ProAdapt Medium and the LuxeAdapt Firm. So you might give the ProAdapt Soft a try and see if it will work for you in terms of softness -- then you can do your split king solution with the ProAdapt Medium and the ProAdapt Soft.
Let us know how it works out!
I think LuxeAdapt Firm is actually like a medium. It is slightly firmer than the ProAdapt medium. LuxeAdapt Firm is to die for! I think you will like it!
Even though the LuxeAdapt Soft is supposed to be firmer than the ProAdapt Soft, many customers find that the LuxeAdapt feels softer. 🤷♀️
I have slept on a Cloud Luxe for a year and had low back pain because it was too soft. The local store is recommending the LuxeAdapt Soft, stating that the extra high density foam layer will offer more support. But this video equates the LuxeAdapt Soft with the Cloud Luxe. Would the new model be the same level of support or better support?
Hi Grace -- Thanks for your question. Overall, we certainly feel good about our assessment that the LuxeAdapt Soft will have a generally similar feel to the Cloud Luxe, though with not quite as much softness (as we stated in the video). This would also make it fairly close to the Cloud Elite. That said, it is not identical to either of those.
In terms of what you are being told by the store, if they are stating that the LuxeAdapt will provide categorically better support for any sleeper on account of the "high density foam layer," then I'm afraid that is just marketing. "Better support" is just a colloquialism -- what good support means for any given person is that their spine is held in a neutral position during the night. The mattress that will do this best will vary based on your weight, body shape, primary sleep position, and other factors. So no mattress offers categorically "better support."
If, on the other hand, they are stating that based on their specific assessment of you and your unique requirements, they believe the LuxeAdapt will provide more neutral spinal alignment in your case, then that's entirely possible -- and without having the benefit of seeing you on that mattress, I would not be in a position to confirm or deny their assessment.
I hope that's helpful.
Goodbed would this mattress give enough support for back sleepers? I’m a back sleeper and weigh 145 pounds.
@@MegaFirstclass the firm luxeadapt would very likely be a great mattress for you.
Thank you for the detailed analysis, presented in a way that I can understand. You are the best! I have a 2013 rhapsody that I'm trying to replace. I love it. What is your recommendation for the equivalent feel in their 2018 line? Trying to decide between the Luxe-adapt and the Contour Rhapsody Luxe (the latter of which is I think discontinued).
Hi John -- Thanks for your question (and your kind words!). You are correct that the Contour Rhapsody is being phased out. So although it does have a very similar feel to the previous Rhapsody, it will be increasingly hard to find. In terms of the newer options that will have the most similar feel to the 2013 Rhapsody, I would go with the Luxe-Adapt Firm. It may also be helpful to know that there are 4 new Tempur-Breeze models coming out in the next few months as well, 2-3 of which have a pretty similar feel to the Rhapsody IMHO.
@@goodbed Awesome, thank you for the help. Really love this channel you are a great resource.
Thanks John! 😊👍
@@goodbed Which of the tempur-breeze are similar to the Rhapsody? We too are replacing out 2012/13 Rhapsody
@@catsrgreen I'd recommend checking out our coverage of the Tempur-Breeze line, which you can find here: www.goodbed.com/reviews/tempur-breeze-mattress-preview/
The Contour-Rhapsody models were pretty firm and IIRC the 12/13 Rhapsody model was too. Assuming that's correct, I think you'll find all of the Breeze models to have a similar feel, at least from a softness and contouring standpoint. We rate them all between Very Firm and Firm on our softness scale, and the Rhapsody model you have would have likely fallen in that same range.
I hope that's helpful.
I just bought the LUXE adapt soft but after about a week I'm having alot of pain in my back did I make a mistake
Hi Ruckus - this is my personal experience with The Luxe Adapt soft. (And, yes, here I am one year later looking at mattresses...). Anyhoo - the mattress started out almost perfect, slightly longer to warm up to my body and conform, but I like that feel. I hesitated getting a Soft because I know memory foam in general softens as room temperature goes up. Yup, this is what happened to me. In winter months, room temp about 62 F , mattress is very good. In summer, room temp above 70, the mattress gets way too soft. In addition, in the 15 months or so that I’ve owned this, it has definitely gotten softer in general. I’m now looking at firmer options. By the way, I weigh about 105 lbs so I don’t indent the bed much. I imagine a heavier person would really find this bed too soft. If I were you, I’d consider swapping this Soft for a firmer one within your 90 return period. I do like the TempurPedic feel very much and am I’m considering the Luxe adapt firm instead. My wallet hates me...
@@severineg8702 was it ever a good mattress? When did you know it was too soft...the back pain, the heat ect? I want to love this bed. Laying down feels good but I just can’t seem to get a solid night sleep without being in pain. I’m mainly a back sleeper. I tired the firm in the store and it was so hard
@@Ruckus9999 Yes, it was definitely good the first 6 months or so, in the cooler months. Now, 15 months old it has softened due to use as well as, in my opinion, being affected more by the warmer room temperatures. If you are a back sleeper I could see this as way too soft for you. I’m a side sleeper with neck, back and hip issues. It really felt good initially but now my lower back is completely tweaked when I wake up. It’s awfully painful. That said, when I first get into bed at night, even now it still feels great - just a bit softer. However, my body heat and the warmer outside temperatures just make it mushy by morning. I actually feel the Luxe is a great mattress as far as memory foam and keeping cooler. By that I mean, I don’t wake up sweating, I don’t feel overheated. I actually considered the Firm but was talked out of it. I am tempted to buy it because I now know that it will soften with use and the temperatures.
@@severineg8702 I agree I love the material feels great but I just don't see it holding up. The only way I can sleep through the night is on my back. If I'm on my side which I believe that this matress is mainly for, I toss and turn all night. Have you tried the medium proadapt that's what I'm leaning more towards. Are you gonna swap? Are you able to sleep a full night?
@@Ruckus9999 I am kind of considering the Medium Adapt, but the Luxe ones are supposed to be a bit cooler, so I’m leaning that way. I got my Luxe in late 2019, so not sure if the ProAdapt now have a cooler fabric. HOWEVER: I totally forgot this happened: I got the Luxe first in November of 2019. I was traveling a lot and only slept in it about 10 days before I noticed extreme softening of the middle. Like I said, I’m only 105 lbs and I like to sleep on the edges, never the middle even though it’s a Queen. By softening- I mean way worse than this bed is now. I called TempurPedic and they immediately agreed something was wrong and no questions asked, delivered a new mattress within a few days. They declared it defective (without even seeing it). It did not count as part of my 90 day swap out. I still had a whole new warranty and 90 days on the new one. I thought the customer service was excellent. Perhaps yours is also defective. I’d give them a call. It was definitely a different feel than what I have now. I actually don’t think mine now is defective. It’s just wearing in and the warmer weather thing. I really encourage you to call customer service.
Great video, thanks!
My pleasure! Thanks for letting us know it was helpful for you!
Do you have any information on the new Breeze models coming out in 2019 and when they will be coming out? Pro Adapt and Luxe Adapt models.
Hi Billy -- Thanks for your question. The new Breeze models will be hitting stores between now and Memorial Day, with the exact arrival date varying by retailer and by region. We will be doing an overview of them that should be ready to publish by the time they are released. If you haven't already, you can subscribe to our UA-cam channel or follow us on Facebook to be notified when it comes out.
One thing I can tell you in the meantime is that unlike the current Breeze models, the new lineup will not be "Breeze versions" of non-Breeze models -- rather, Breeze will be a separate and distinct line unto itself that does not map back to the ProAdapt or LuxeAdapt models. It will, however, have two tiers: ProBreeze and LuxeBreeze.
I hope that's helpful.
Hi Billy -- Thanks again for your previous question about the new Tempur-Breeze mattresses. FYI, in case it's still relevant for you, I wanted to let you know that we've just released our overview of the whole line-up for 2019, which includes 4 new Breeze models in total. You can check it out here:

so i wonder what tempur pedic would charge if they still made there first beds with all nice high density foam. like 15k? haha. Sad things get cheaper and yet more expensive.
Like original Coke!!! I have Original Deluxe!!! Its amazing, but its wearing out. Im getting Luxe Adapt Firm.
@@johnyang1420 how is your mattress I'm getting the same one
Would you consider tempurpedic and loom and leaf to be in the “same league “ as far as comfort and quality is concerned?
Hi there -- Thanks for your question. In general, I think that Tempur-Pedic still makes the highest-quality memory foam mattresses out there. That said, they have been cutting back on their foam density over the past 10 years. While I do believe that these changes are fundamentally good-intentioned -- e.g., intended to improve things like feel, comfort, temperature regulation, etc. -- IMHO they are also most likely detrimental to the overall comfort life of these products, which to most people is an important element of "quality."
Now, foam density is *certainly* not everything when it comes to quality -- there are plenty of benefits to Tempur's proprietary formulation(s) that go beyond density, especially in terms of the entirely subjective matter of "comfort," which you also mentioned. In fact, density is not even everything when it comes to just the longevity aspect of quality. But, to the extent that it is a factor, Tempur's changes over the past 10 years have given newer market entrants an opportunity to close the gap on this front. Loom & Leaf is one such player, although moreso than Tempur-Pedic, they also incorporate some less-proven components into their products. Although, like Tempur-Pedic, they most likely have very good intentions for doing this, IMHO it does introduce the potential for a "weak link" that an otherwise similar Tempur product would not have. For this reason, I would not put them on par with Tempur-Pedic. That said, your question was whether they are in the same league -- if that "league" is simply higher-end memory foam mattresses, then sure, that would be a reasonable statement.
I hope that's helpful.
GoodBed hi and thank you for responding. It actually did help. Just a quick FYI, I tried the zen haven and didn’t like the latex feel so exchanged it for the loom and leaf firm (I’m a heavyweight) but alas it is too firm, so now I’m waiting on the relaxed firm option to arrive. I’ve had a tempurpedic cloud supreme breeze for the last almost 8 years and I do love the memory foam feel but needed a new mattress for the guest room so I decided to put the tempur in there and get myself a new one. As far as I can tell, based on your reply, I’m basically getting the generic version of tempurpedic, which often times generics are just as good ie; fruit loops lol. But if it falls short in the long run, at least I can buy 3 loom and leaf beds for the price of 1 tempurpedic. So wish me luck and thanks again for your review and especially for your response.
I just spent over 2 hrs in the tempurpedic store testing all the new models today. My past mattresses I slept on the cloud lux for 1 year which was way too soft and caused low back pain. Slept on rhapsody lux for 2 years. Very firm and hot. Now i have a cloud supreme breeze i have been on for 3 years and i would say the most perfect bed. But i just like replacing every 3 years for new. I really liked the new luxe adapt firm the best. I felt it was in between the rhapsody and supreme breeze. If you remember the contour luxe breeze that is the most compairable with the luxe adapt firm in my opinion. I agree with your studies on these mattresses. The tempurpedic sales person told me they were going to introduce the breeze covers on the new mattresses in 2019 raising the price for a king luxeadapt firm to around $6k. Without the breeze $5k.

hey there! we bought our basic tempur pedic 16 years ago & the motion cancellation was great but now it's no longer good. in your professional opinion, which mattress out of all the brands/models out there offers the BEST motion cancellation? i just need to not feel when my husband moves! that is my only requirement in life right now :))
Hi Elisabeth -- Thanks for your question, and sorry I missed this earlier. The truth is that the majority of mattresses with at least 3 inches of slow-responding memory foam on top that use either an all-foam or pocketed-coil construction will offer as near to perfect motion isolation as is possible, so it would be impossible to pick a single "best" from that rather large group. Going further, there is another even larger class of mattresses right below the first class that we would say offers "very good" motion isolation -- meaning, more than good enough for the vast majority of people, though perhaps not for people who have a particularly acute concern in this area.
I would actually put basically all Tempur-Pedic mattresses in the first category -- meaning, near-perfect motion isolation. As for why yours no longer offers excellent motion isolation, this is rather curious since nothing should really change with the motion isolation properties of an all-foam mattress over time. If yours no longer offers excellent motion isolation, my guess is that something might have happened with the frame or platform underneath the mattress. Not that you would want to sleep on the floor, but to illustrate the point, it would be very surprising to me if you were to still experience significant motion disturbance if that mattress were on the floor. In that situation, the only thing that could really transfer motion is the stretch cover, which is typically a very subtle form of motion disturbance.
As an aside, if you're shopping around, this question is actually a great litmus test of how trustworthy someone is as an information resource. If they answer this by giving you a specific brand or a list of models that have the "best motion isolation," you can know instantly that they are simply trying to sell you those products (or that they don't know what they're talking about).
I hope that's helpful.
You are absolutely right, it’s the bedframe… We did switch it out. I’m sure if I put it on the floor it would be perfect! Thank you so much for your expertise in this matter :-)
My pleasure Elisabeth. 🙂 I'm very glad that was helpful.
Thank you. Great oveview.
Are there any reviews available on lux adapt models? Cant seem to find any online. I have a tempur pedic adapt medium that im not content with. I feel that I sink right through the comfort layer into the support layer which is kind of hard and uncomfortabe and was wondering how the luxe adapt soft model would compare if I upgraded? Thank you
Hi Frank -- Thanks for your question (and kind words). I'm afraid we have not done an in-depth review of either of the LuxeAdapt models, so this video would be the closest thing available. That said, one thing you might find useful as a point of comparison is to hear our equivalent overview of the Adapt and ProAdapt mattresses. You can see those in this video:
ua-cam.com/video/1fNsPEyYw8c/v-deo.html
I hope that's helpful for you.
Bought recently a pro adapt medium. I'm finding it a bit to hard most nights or laying in bed watching tv for extended periods. Just for fun and a test I threw a Novofoam topper I had on it. Felt a great softness layer but it still maintained the deeper contouring and correct postute feeling. But for brand new bed it's important to get the right bed not put a topper on it. My question is should I switch to the pro adapt soft model or now that this luxeadapt is available give that a try. I'm in Canada, I need to check if Sleep country carries the Luxe.
Anyhow, love good bed videos and comments. They have all been very helpful.
Thank you.
Mike Delgaty I just bought the pro adapt soft it is firm too but soft. But it has a softer rating than the New Luxe adapt. It is the softest rated new model. That’s why I bought it.
Just a tip alot of the time the cells need to open, stand on the bed and wlk across quite a bit
Bill Brooks how do you like your ProAdapt Soft now (assuming you still have it). Did if soften up? I ordered a LuxeAdapt Soft as though you’re right that the Proadapt is supposed to be the softest (according to Tempur-pedic), many customers though feel that the LuxeAdapt is. Weird, I know!
Hey Mike, maybe they’ve changed it since you made this video, but the top layer of the firm isn’t APR+, it’s original Tempur material with the APR+ under that.
I ordered the ProBreeze medium hybrid but I’m finding it’s not as supportive or as pressure relieving as I’d hoped for.
After spending time on both the luxe soft and luxe firm, I’m stuck between the two. I really like both lol I’m a side/stomach sleeper if that makes sense.
Hi Tommy. Thanks for the comment -- you're correct. On both models now, the Tempur APR+ is the second layer of foam. We'll look into when that changed.
If your main concern is pressure relief on your side, then the Soft version is probably the way to go. But you don't say how heavy you are -- when stomach sleeping, your hips might sink in too much (common issue with soft memory foam). One thought is to go with the firm for stomach-sleeping support, then add a mattress topper if you want extra softness.
Either way, have you take our quiz? You can enter all your needs and preferences, and our quiz will turn up mattress that should be a good fit for you. You can start the quiz here:

Im really curious about these since it seems like tempurpedic skimped on the apr and tempur material in the proadapt firm. It really disappoints me. I spent nearly $3000 only to discover its mostly comprised of hard rigid quick-response high density foam that i'd never sleep on alone. Then I learn they staggered the release of their best model that has much more of the material. It's hard to believe the production of foam products is expensive. Its the research behind the technology that cost $$$$. Which makes me wonder why they'd make a less comfortable mattress just to make a proper mattress more marketable. Disappointed and I have no recourse.
Jesse N if you bought your bed within the last 4 months you most likely can still go to the store and swap it out and only the pay difference plus a redelivery/small restocking fee as long as your have a mattress protector
This is old but who the heck wrote this?? I had the rhapsody and it was great but I got a little old and started to sink in so far I'd wake up in a crater and in hammock pain in my middle and lower back. I now have the contour elite which is like the same as the pro adapt firm and it's so much better. They make different mattresses for different people it's not their fault you bought the wrong one.
@@Bennyblades44 who the heck wrote it? Who do you think? You can read, right?
You don't own a proadapt firm so you can't speak from experience, not that I would value your response if you did.
Since I didn't comment on the comfort of the mattress, you have no idea where I stand with that... I did however comment on the quality of the materials used compared to the premium version that was release months later. And yes, I stand by that 3 years later. Bad business, and I won't buy direct from temperpedic again.
@@cornholius premium version??? You mean firm version?? Skimped on materials??? You mean literally the exact materials minus the breeze feature and a different configuration for less cushion for a more firm feel?? You're lost. You're telling me I don't own the pro adapt firm when I own the contour elite which feels virtually identical. That's like saying only have the 2020 jeep Cherokee and it's 2021 so I know nothing about jeep Cherokees. I had the damn rhapsody which is the same as the newer Luxe and it was so much less supportive and uncomfortable. Like sleeping in Clark Griswolds sled. To some people the pro adapt firm is better than the Luxe hate to break it to you. Enjoy your purple or whatever trash bed you have now.
How does the luxe adapt soft compare to the serta icomfort cf4000 plush? We are having such a hard time deciding.
Nobody local to us stocks the icomfort series so we aren’t able to try it out.
We love the sinking in feel of the luxe adapt, but we like the price point of the icomfort.
Hi Josh. Tempur-pedic is known for that slow, melting memory foam -- it's the cornerstone of their business. The Serta iComfort CF4000 has a lot of softness, but it doesn't have as much of that 'melting' feeling as a Tempur-pedic will have.
Hope that helps!
What would you say are the differences between the pro adapt firm vs luxe firm?
Hi Heidi -- Thanks for your question. In terms of the differences between the ProAdapt and LuxeAdapt lines, it mostly comes down to 1) the amount of total memory foam (ie, Tempur material) in the mattress, and 2) the addition of their premium Tempur-APR+ foam. We discuss these a bit more in the section of the video that starts at 0:39.
In terms of the LuxeAdapt Firm vs ProAdapt Firm, the biggest difference in feel is that the LuxeAdapt Firm is going to have a bit more softness. We get into some more of the specifics of the softness and feel of the Firm vs Soft versions later in this video, esp in the section that starts at 4:36.
For comparison, you should also check out our overview of the Tempur-ProAdapt lineup (which specifically discusses the ProAdapt Firm model) here:

What value is "coolness to the touch" when you have a mattress cover and sheets? I don't understand how any of this helps unless you are laying directly on the mattress? What am I missing?
Hi David -- This is a great question. There is no doubt that there will be less coolness to the "touch" the more layers of fabric are between you and the mattress. That said, the material should still have a temperature-regulating impact once the heat from your body reaches it, which certainly would still happen even through sheets and a protector.
Think of it like the marble example we used in the video. If you put a sheet on top of a slab of marble, it would certainly reduce the coolness to the touch (vs touching the marble directly). But if you were to then lay on that sheet (on top of the marble), there would still be more of a cooling effect than if you laid on that same sheet on top of wood.
I hope that's helpful.
@@goodbed That makes sense! Thanks much.
My pleasure David!
Seems like tempurpdic is skimping on the density of the basefoams on all their new models, this is disappointing. 1.6 lb basefoam is low quality, won’t last as long and won’t support heavier weights as well as their higher density foams they don’t seem to be using anymorw
where did you find the density of the base foam? I thought they wouldn't give that information
These “cool” covers make no sense to me. I’ve got a mattress cover and sheets on my bed. How can these cool covers help in any way unless you are sleeping directly on them?!
Hi David -- Thanks for your comment. This is a very fair point. While we can't scientifically measure the effect, our hunch is the same as yours -- that sheets and bedding are going to negate at least some of the 'cool feel' of a cover. That said, it should still have some ability to absorb heat from your body. Imagine if you put a sheet over a piece of marble vs. on a wood floor -- it's a more extreme example to illustrate the point, but certainly the marble would still feel cooler.
I hope that's helpful.
